Early showers will let up by midday, then pick up again in the afternoon. A thunderstorm will remain possible during the latter part of the day.

According to WTNH meteorologist Gil Simmons, temperatures will peak in the low-70s, with increased humidity levels.

Friday, on the other hand, will feature mostly sunny skies and highs approaching the 80s. The trend, however, is not expected to continue into the weekend, as both Saturday and Sunday will likely see rainfall.

Here is the rest of Simmons' eight-day forecast:

TODAY: Umbrella alert & watch for early fog! Some passing light rain this morning then a break before another round this afternoon and even a thunderstorm possible. Humid with highs in the lower 70s.
